Statement on the outcomes of the Voice Referendum

FDPN expresses its deep sadness regarding the outcome of the referendum aimed at embedding the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voice within the Australian Constitution.

As individuals who have been forcibly displaced, many of us have sought refuge from the enduring impacts of colonialism. We arrived in this land seeking our last safe heaven. We remain profoundly grateful for generosity and hospitality extended to us by the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. Our commitment to the pursuit of justice for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples remains unwavering.
